Lindenberg Medal

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Lindenberg Medal is an award for exceptional achievements in the field of philatelic research and literature. It is one of the world's most important awards in this field. Sometimes it is even referred to as the “ Nobel Prize for Philatelists”.

The "Berliner Philatelisten-Klub" named the medal after its former chairman Carl Lindenberg and donated it from 1905 in his honor. The ducal Saxon court medalist Max von Kawaczynski made the original stamp . Because of the outbreak of World War I , Castle, Evans, Bacon and also Hanciau returned their medals. Between 1906 and 1943 the club loaned them to 30 philatelists. The die was destroyed in the Second World War, so the association did not award this honor for a long time.

Since 1981 it has been awarded again by the “Berlin Philatelist Club”. The club had the new die using the original medal from Dr. Imitate Emilio Diena .
